My Project

Dear donors, I am asking for a donation of some odds and ends that will keep my science classroom thriving. We need snacks to provide thinking energy, cleaning supplies to keep the germs away, and chairs for my calming corner.

Additionally, the grow lamp will help students learn about soil, photosynthesis, and asexual reproduction, which will reach all 6-8th grade science classes.

Finally, my students need chargers for their iPads (students are not provided chargers) and stylus to help with art on the iPads.

I appreciate your generous donations. There are many supplies to keep my science classroom thriving.
